Nevermind

Nice job, JS

My post was uncalled for and rude. I'm sorry. For the record, I read every post you make because while I disagree with pretty much every single thing you post on this forum, I at least appreciate your opinion and actually value it a bit.

Seriously, sorry about that.



However, RG, I can't stand his ......he brings nothing to the table but arrogance........imho.

reform is needed because we all know you can keep doing the same thing with less. its not going to become do more with more with the incoming congress and tea slashers. even the la mayor has attacked unions already. you know things gotta change if the democrat is criticizing unions.

The problem isn't the education system it's the suck ass students.

It's a cultural problem. The "every kid is a winner" philosophy and social promotion has ruined the last two generations. Any kid that wants to work hard and study can still get a world class education. The problem is that about 98% 0f them would rather play video games and off. The 2% are socially ostracized because "achieving and winning" is such an outdated and old fashioned concept.

Why would the upper echelon want any other result?

A dummed-down workforce is easier to manage/control/feed lies to/take to war/send to war/tax under the table/dupe/grope/force to shoulder business losses of the ultra-wealthy/scam out of their retirements, savings, investments/rob of their fundamental liberties/take nude pics of.

While true, the upper echelon is not forcing these idiots to have multiple kids with no means whatsoever.

That and Ive seen many parents allow those kids to play games and off. Kids like these are given everything they could possibly want or need for doing practically nothing.

I think another part of the problem is that the schools put pressure on teachers to pass kids on through the system whether they deserve it or not.

No real incentives.
